Pet care experience

Just Like Home; No Crating

Taking care of beloved pets is taking care of pet owners. Relaxing time away can only happen if you can trust that your pets are loved and taken care of almost as good as you😊 I have had a variety of pets my entire life. Friends, neighbors and family have trusted me to take excellent care of their pets. I have gone to their home, they have come to my home and I have visited just to walk them. I love all animals and have learned over the years how to recognize their individual needs. We have a quiet space with lots of grass and woods for playing. My groomer told me there is a need for pet care and I want more pets in my life, so this is perfect for me. I work closely with pet parents to make sure your pet has everything they need to feel right at home. We are outside a lot! I love to walk in all kinds of weather and I love to play outside whenever possible. In addition, I love farm animals too! Your pets are safe in my back yard. I always go outside with the pets and will use a leash if need be. I make pets feel right at home inside our home as well.

House Sitting • Jul 29, 2026

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Kelly! We left our 4.5-month-old puppy with her and her husband while we were at a concert. Since he isn't used to being away from us, we were nervous, but he was so comfortable with them. We loved the updates, which put our minds completely at ease. Kelly clearly has a natural gift with animals and a heart of gold. She even noticed I’d accidentally overcharged myself on the booking and fixed it before I even realized. Your pet would be so lucky to be in her care—we will definitely be rebooking for our future travel!

Kelly took great care of our Beastie, tailoring each visit for him so he had the best time. We’re grateful for the time and care she gave him.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2025

Kelly took great care of the dogs for most of the day and evening so my wife and I could enjoy a wonderful afternoon and evening at parent’s weekend at our kids’ camp. She was very flexible, responsive, and our dogs came back tired and happy from playing with her doggies! I would highly recommend

Doggy Day Care • Dec 31, 2024

Kelly is wonderful! She really knows dogs and is intuitive to their needs. She makes sure that they get lots of playing time in and go home happy and sleepy. The runner she has is a great option for a dog that is not the best at recall so they remain safe while playing with the others. She was also very accommodating and flexible with changes in schedule. Great communicator too.

Pets

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. We have plenty of land, with plenty of woods . We walk a lot checking out smells and scenery. In addition, we play lots of different ball games. In the summer, if pets want to play in the water, I love that! Of course, there is always the squirrels! We hike on local trails. I have a tiny horses belt system and can walk up to eight dogs on my belt through the hiking trails. The dogs absolutely absolutely love it. We do sniff and walks and I carry plenty of water with me. If my dog stay overnight, they all know that they can sleep in my big king size bed with my husband and me. I have a swimming pool that’s in ground and I teach them how to get in and out of it and I also have tiny swimming pools for those who prefer just that to cool off, we do play dates where I take dogs with me to fenced in yards with other doggy clients. I pick your dog up in the morning go to all the play dates and hiking trails, then bring your doggy home. It’s the way Life should be.

I have no problem with special needs dogs. I have had a blind dog who needed drops and I have had many elderly dogs who needed special medicines and/or exercise. I also love to sit and cuddle with them.
